Indonesian share prices closed 0.5 percent higher on Friday after the government announced strong 2007 economic growth data, dealers said. The Jakarta Composite index closed up 12.55 points at 2,688.19. Volume was 3.48 billion shares valued at 41.34 trillion rupiah (4.46 billion dollars).
Decliners narrowly led gainers 86 to 84, with 73 stocks unchanged. The economy expanded 6.32 percent, official data showed, the fastest since the Asian financial crisis 11 years ago. Fitch Ratings upgraded Indonesia's credit ratings citing progress in the government's efforts to boost the investment climate.
"The market ... managed to bounce back in the second session, boosted by encouraging GDP (gross domestic product) data, as well as the recovery in some regional markets," said Evergreen Capital analyst Edwin Sebayang.
The market lost ground in the morning after bearish comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke about the US economy. Perusahaan Gas Negara rose 150 rupiah to 12,750. Telkom added 50 rupiah to 10,000. Its rival Indosat edged up 50 rupiah to 7,350.
